up craft club + giveaway

Welcome back to giveaway week! I am so excited to introduce you to the beautiful online shop, the UpCraft Club. The UpCraft Club is a little different from every other pattern shop out there. I’ll let the owner, Elizabeth, tell you a bit about it:

Looking for high quality patterns and the newest releases from your favorite designers? Check out UpCraftClub.com! UpCraft Club is a modern sewing association where you’ll find a growing selection of well written patterns for children’s clothing plus designs you can sew for yourself. You can get just one pattern, or sign up as a Member and your first pattern is FREE. Members get $10 to spend in the shop every month and a 10% discount at JoAnn Fabrics (plus 20% off everything else on UpCraftClub.com and other fun benefits)!

Often when I see a pattern that I want, I will hem and haw about whether or not I should buy it. I think about it so much that eventually I annoy myself to the point where I don’t even want to sew it any more. It sounds silly, but sometimes we need that extra little push to buy the pattern and just sew it already:) That’s why I like UpCraft Club. You can become a member and then have your pick of gorgeous patterns to sew each month–for your kidsandyourself! The shop is so well curated that every pattern is great. I would happily sew each one!

Elizabeth had this great idea to look through the KCW project pool archives and find UpCraft patterns that KCW community members have sewed. And there are so, so many amazing projects! All patterns on the UpCraft Club are from well-known, and well-loved designers like Adrianna from Hey June, Vanessa from LBG Studios, and Celina from Petit a Petit and Family, plus many, many more.

An UpCraft Club Membership is $10 per month and pays for itself with a store credit worth any class or pattern of your choice! In addition to a free pattern every month, you get 20% off of anything else you buy in the UpCraft Club store. Plus when you are a member you automatically become a JoAnn Fabrics VIP and you’ll save 10% off your purchases at JoAnn Fabrics (that includes sale items!). Because if you live in the US and you sew, you are bound to end up at Joann’s…a lot! Plus there are membership discounts and exclusive patterns!

I hope all these beautiful garment from KCWs past have inspired you to check out the patterns in the UpCraft Club. Elizabeth has generously offered to giveaway a $40 gift certificate to the UpCraft Club shop. If you win you can choose whichever classes or patterns you like! Use the Rafflecopter widget below to enter by Tuesday June 23. This giveaway is open to international entries, void where prohibited by law.

Wow, what a great prize! And a great idea, I also spend hours contemplating to buy a pattern, time I could spend better…. And so many great patterns! The Fawn Lily tunic & dress pattern would be my first pick for sure!

I just discovered one of my all-time favorite patterns: the Julia Cardigan. I’ve already sewn once, and have two more on my to do list in quite different styles. But okay, that’s one I already have. Another one that I’d love to try is the Patricia Tunic. With both patterns, I love that they include plus sizes!
